Stowe Cider was founded in 2013 with the purpose of creating a new image for domestic cider. Our vision boasts less than half the sweetness of most commercial cider and sources sustainable fruit from within 150 miles of our cidery. Head Cider Maker and Co-Owner, Mark Ray, is constantly developing unique recipes that range from dry and preservative-free to blends that utilize local fruit, hops and novel barrel-aging techniques. From our humble beginnings fermenting small batches at home, Stowe Cider has since become an established contributor to the Stowe and greater Vermont community.
